Ice-cold water tastes better. That’s not a myth—it’s science. Cold water numbs your taste buds to bitterness and chlorine. But don’t drown it in ice cubes made from tap water (that defeats the point).
Make your ice from your filtered water. Or, even better, use a glass bottle in the fridge. Glass doesn’t leach any flavors, unlike plastic. Your water will stay crisp, not “tupperware-ish.”
